    I hadn't even seen this video! That's got to be a hyena. Good to see that they're not just sticking to more common zoo animals though some Asian elephants would be nice

    Why aren't there any aye-ayes yet?? Surely a contender for an upcoming zoo game - or they could just release Aye-Aye Simulator!

    YAY! Spotted hyenas (well, all hyenas) are one of my favourite animals. This makes me really happy. I hope they reveal okapi soon or later. If zt2 had them, why not planet zoo?

    I don't need much. I'll be happy with just some catfish or arapaimas.

    Did you hear about the terrarium system? I was thinking that could be used for freshwater fish.

    I hope a lot from the terrarium system. Reptiles, amphibians, fishes (both fresh and saltwater), rodents, small mammals in general, invertebrates... And they told these small animals don't count as the 50+ they assure.

    I actually saw an article earlier today (that I've included below) which mentions that the indoor exhibits can house birds, amphibians and reptiles.

    The quote in question comes from the second-to-last paragraph in this article:

    I was feeling manageably sad when I learned about this game because I don't have a PC anymore. Manageably.

    Now this... can't say any double whammy of species could have hit harder!

    Good to see they're getting gharials in... sticking with their conservation message.

    Imagine buying a brand new gaming PC this year, finding out this game is coming out and then having a cat spray up the back of it frying your new gaming PC!!!

    I preordered the game in steam with this deluxe edition which adds pygmy hippos and stuff. I'm afraid that my laptop won't handle it.

    I am also afraid my computer won't be able to handle it, but then it was able to handle Jurassic World Evolution.

    Oh that should be plenty fine then - for now the game looks virtually identical to JWE in terms of computer power needed :)

    My computer barely handles JWE on its lowest settings so I think I need to upgrade my graphics card / processor.......

    Maybe so, maybe so.... although games do seem as if they need more processing power than they do when their presentation is released and all the incredibly HD in-game photos are shown off to the public.

    Indeed, I just hope I can replace my current processor with a newer and better one.

    Boa constrictor has been confirmed as a new terrarium species (the second one that has been shown in footage, after the lesser Antillean iguana):
